Venue: 
Barnfield Theatre, Exeter

Host of BBC Radio 4’s Goes to Market and star of BBC1’s Live at the Apollo, Simon Evans has been immersing himself in economics for the last couple of years, like a pig immersing itself in organic cleansing elements. He has unpicked why the French don’t want to own their own home (sex, obvs), why mass spectrometers reveal Americans to literally be made of corn, and why Alco-Synth – the effects of alcohol but with an effective antidote – is not likely to be appearing at a wine bar near you in the near future, despite having been invented years ago. As usual the whole thing deteriorates...

In early 2014 this prompted their decision to take their show on the road to a wider audience, and larger venues, and so the Division...

Not Such a Tory Land

Event Date: 
28/10/2016 - 7:00pm
Venue: 
Barnfield Theatre, Exeter

Between 1642 and 1649 England was on the brink of revolution. Profound questions about society and politics were asked, and answered in one way or another. What was the nature of democracy, and how far into society should it ex-tend? How should we respond to treachery and betrayal, liars and tyrants?

As this revolution moved forward, ordinary women and men were swept into becoming giants and heroes.
